Strickland is back so I think I'll keep it close. This pick is ALL pride no rationalization needed KTHXBYE

12/24 - Celtics (-22.5) @ Sames (Jazz)
Fuck it I think Celts blow the Jazz a new ass.

12/26 - Rockets @ T-Wolves (-4.5)
78 is going to be fapping too hard to the projected lux tax he owes and DEMAND EXCELLENCE FROM HIS TEAM.... but they fall short.

12/22 - Nuggets (-7.5) @ Kings
Nuggets continue to assert themselves offensively; in a season or two, the Nuggets would have to worry about the ferociously, defensively good frontcourt of the Kings. However, not just yet. Nuggets

12/24 - Celtics (-22.5) @ Sames (Jazz)
I think the Celtics will win this game, without a doubt. That said, I think the sames do just enough to lose by less than 22. Jazz lose by < 22.5

12/26 - Rockets @ T-Wolves (-4.5)
I love the Twolves and their owner; he's such a nice guy! But I have the Rockets winning this one. Rockets

12/26 - Hornets @ Knicks (-11.5)
Despite the Hornets acquiring Rodman, Knicks will win this one. That said, the Hornets scored just enough for the Knicks to not cover the spread. Hornets lose by < 11.5

12/29 - Bucks (-3.5) @ Clippers
I'm a homer and IDGAF about "reverse curses". Bucks

12/31 - Lakers (-4.5) @ Wizards
Wizards trading away Nick Anderson have traded away their chances to win this game. lakers

12/31 - Cavs @ Pistons (-3.5)
Steve Smith gets the job done here to keep the Pistons just about the spread. Pistons

We'll use these picks in case of no Raby (It's my fault as I threw these out last minute) I'll be updating for wednesday's pick'em tonight. Thanks for jumping on this everyone.


12/22 - Nuggets (-7.5) @ Kings - Too much forward depth, and the Kings don't have the backcourt depth to exploit the Nuggets injuries.
12/24 - Celtics (-22.5) @ Sames (Jazz)
- Celtics just obliterate the Sames.
12/26 - Rockets @ T-Wolves (-4.5)
- T-Wolves are too good at home. No way they lose this to the Shaq's. Also, They match up really well.
12/26 - Hornets @ Knicks (-11.5)
- Knicks win, but Hornets do enough to keep it close on the road.
12/29 - Bucks (-3.5) @ Clippers
- If the Bucks don't win this, the GM should resign.
12/31 - Lakers (-4.5) @ Wizards
- The Syndicate's Underdog Upset of the Week: The Wizards shut down the Lakers at home. Love their DC/GP
12/31 - Cavs @ Pistons (-3.5) - In a matchup of teams that legitimately aren't as bad as other bad teams have been, I think the Pistons are slightly less bad.
